I may be a male, but i have the same problem. I am starting to believe
it is of allergic characteristic. I can trigger this inflammation by
eating Cinnamon chewing gum. Also, much use of SALT will also trigger
such a reaction. IE: McDonalds. Within 12 hours, my entire tongue will
be coated in these painful irritations, with no cure other than the wait
that is associated with natural healing. I've discovered the
Chloraseptic provides a moments relief. I would note: I also have
issues with constant canker sores.
